I would like to know why every anime watcher and their mother thinks itsuomi is the red fl...

They are so used to jerks they project 1st mc as such and 2nd lead as the better alternative instead of actual reading their character through theur actions

I think people are stereotyping him. He’s tall, beautiful, intelligent, confident, socialable, and kind so he must be an asshole right? Right? Because when I was in high school that was the kind of guy who shoved me into lockers and got all the girls. I’m joking. (￣∇￣")

This manga isn’t that complicated. It says early on that it’s the pure love story of a deaf girl and a traveler. Here: https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/yubisaki_to_renren/hs/hs_v-1-chapter-1/2/

From what I can tell this author does fluffy stories. Check out her previous works. Most of it is tame stuff.

Oushi never asked her out. He even dated other girls. If it wasn’t Itsuomi it would’ve been another guy. He’s dreaming if he thinks no guy would notice her.

Fr. And I couldn't handle when I see comments saying, "Run, girl! He only likes you coz you're interesting." If that's their first thought, then it's good for them to stop watching.

Meanwhile, they don't even clue into the fact that Itsuomi never, not once, considered Yuki less than due to her disability. Instead, he finds sign language beautiful, just as much as he finds other cultures and other languages beautiful. Never mind that he learns sign language himself, but he's so confident that he makes sure Yuki never questions their relationship.

And yet, they keep on saying, "Aw poor Oushi. Give him a chance." Hell nah. If you want him, you can keep him.

said by no one.

I speak English and Spanish and all im seeing in my social (in both languages) lately is people saying this, specifically how itsuomi is too touchy with Yuki so "he's a red flag and a player" and oushi should be endgame bc "he's overprotective of her "

"Overprotective" lol. Wants her to stay indoors coz it's safer. Wants to keep her safe and secure coz, as a deaf person, life is harder. I can't with him.
